Triumph was one of the best-known names in typewriters for well over half a century, having started production in

1909; the Triumph name was used through successive corporate ownerships through the 1980's at least. In 1957
Grundig had taken over the Triumph typewriter brand in Nuremberg and in 1966 the Grundig-owned Triumph company took control of Adler. By the end of 1968, Triumph and Adler were fully merged and in January of the following year Litton Industries took over Triumph-Adler. That same year, Triumph-Adler, under Litton ownership, produced the bright coloured Tippa and Tippa S in Holland.

The Grundig Electronic-Triumph-Adler (GTA) joint sales organisation marked the practical start of the merger between Triumph and Adler. Development, production and administration were still separate entities, although
Triumph and Adler worked in close collaboration.
